Once converted into markers, the ADR data can be used with Nuendo’s ADR Taker, a tool that helps one manage overdubbing sessions, and this too has been given some attention in Nuendo 12. Not only does this massively simplify the process of creating subtitle data that is accurately synced to the dialogue, but you can also include other TTAL metadata that can switch on-screen notices on and off, for instance. Furthermore, Nuendo can now import marker data from, and export it to, Netflix’s TTAL script format. The network ADR API used by Nuendo can also be harnessed by other applications so that, for example, changes made by a project’s script editors or language translators can be sent directly into Nuendo for the sound team to deal with. At the most basic level, this support allows an EdiCue PDF cue list to be imported into Nuendo and converted into cycle markers, but the integration can be taken much further: With EdiCue running on the same computer, or on a computer connected to the same local network as Nuendo, data can be transferred and synced directly between the two applications. New here is support for Sounds In Sync’s EdiCue v4 software, widely used for managing ADR and cue management in TV and film production projects. If your project does have an existing ADR script, Nuendo can import this and create marker tracks from it.

From here, a new Create Markers From Events tool will create markers corresponding to each clip and can auto-set marker attributes using information derived from the clip – track name, timecode, scene number, and so on.
